"The cover is not representative of the book! I also feel the synopsis makes it sound much cheesier than the writing is. I definitely enjoyed this one! It leaves you on a bit of a cliffhanger and the second books picks up with another character’s storyline - we’ll see how they tie together! "
"It took me 5 years to finally read my autographed ARC copy of this. I wasn't sure why I didn't pick it up right away, but I do know I'm glad I don't have to wait for the next one. When I first read the book blurb for this I wasn't sure what to expect really. I think this was better than I had imagined and I'm okay with that.<br/><br/>This was interesting. The skills are interesting and different from the other Vincent books I've read. Being blood bound would suck. Bounded to anything would suck. We take our free will for granted. I couldn't imagine being compelled to always do something I don't want to do. I enjoyed watching people try to find loop holes for their contracts."
